Pros:

We stayed at Samba Bossa Nova Ipanema for two nights. The hotel was clean and spacious, and the breakfast was very nice. Most of the staff were friendly and welcoming. Good location and nearby restaurant.

Cons:

However, one lady at reception seemed focused and was often busy with paperwork, so she was not very quick to assist us. It would improve the guest experience if she could smile more, acknowledge guests, and give them her full attention when they need assistance.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay.

Pros:

La posizione

Cons:

Pulizie effettuate nel tardo pomeriggio o non vengono fatte ne non sollecitate.
La pulizia è medio bassa.
Le chiavi delle camere si smagnetizzano di continuo rendendo scomodo il soggiorno.
Staff scostumato al momento del check out: pur avendo rappresentato la necessità di procedere con celerità per non perdere il volo, hanno quasi obbligato il mio partner ad attendere.

Satisfatória, mas com potencial de ser melhorada
Pros:

Localização

Cons:

As toalhas de banho fornecidas são antigas, ásperas ao toque e perderam a funcionalidade. Passam a impressão de falta de higiene em razão de estarem bastante desgastadas pelo uso. O aparelho de televisão do quarto é um modelo antigo e ultrapassado, sem recursos de Smart TV para acesso, por exemplo, a aplicativos de streaming
